Gordon isn't exactly lighting the sky the last few months either. Looks like Phillips nailed on now. I don't think that will make any difference to the gk cb lb rw cf issues.

He's yet another plodder who's been seen as not good enough by man city to get a few minutes

I mean he's better than longstaff, but the club seems to be completely unaware that other clubs have mobile players and Newcastles entire squad is made of lead with the exception of about 4 players.

Noted as of late that Bruno G is real plodder, **** he's slow. He's only little as well.

Joelinton, slow at everything. Calm, but very slow.

Gordon is exhausted. He's played every minute almost and never stops.

Signing a Man City reject CDM seems to be quite pointless to me

When Howe goes it wouldn't surprise me if they hired Moyes to be perfectly honest.

Why would he leave West Ham? I mean he's won a trophy and has the likes of Bowen kudus and paqueta. I'm beginning to look at Newcastles squad thinking who've we really got?

Yeah Gordon is tired he's a player of real promise..Guimareas is class but slow and needs better players with him in cm.

There's just no pace until you get to Gordon and Almiron and when they get tired we are done.

I'd go with the guy at Brighton I watched them again last night and the way they play is on a completely different level to our huff and puff need the crowd approach.

He's made 26 different sides with his squad, had injuries... they're bringing on a left back that is 10 times the player Dan Burn is ... gros is a brilliant player.... I don't know quite what Newcastle are doing with recruitment but we've got absolutely no guile whatsoever.

Its because the promised footballing genius from the FA Dan Ashworth is a ****ing hack who produces Football Manager-esque slideshows to convince our owners we in fact need 3 more midfielders and not a RW or a fullback.

Trying to be too smart is the number 1 issue. Owners afraid to be seen as bad guys is number 2.
Manager being too nice is number 3.

All those contribute to a soft approach.

I think when it goes nose dive under Howe (which it does with 95% of coaches) Amanda won't even have the balls the fire him. It will have to be a Saudi bloke.

I'm not a manager, fitness expert, Directer of Football or anything like that. But I said 6 months ago that Trippier and Wilson were too old and needed replacements.

Signing a Trippier replacement doesn't work if he has to cover the cack at left back. Absolute basics.

I'm beginning to think Howe is getting final say on transfers. Ashworth seemed to be bringing in a different kind of player at Brighton .. unknowns in particular but here's Newcastle going after the likes of Phillips, McTominay and Maguire.

I'm with Roland its been dreadful recruitment for a while now whoever is to blame.

That's only because Brighton don't have money.

They sign and sell.

I remember the fans saying no to Pedro, but he was buttons in comparison and looks a far more reliable player.

Another assumption on your behalf
I never said that, unless you are saying I'm not a fan
Didn't know who he was then,
So couldn't say yes or no to him

Still don't know who he is now

I just remember reading alot of negative reactions to being linked with him, but he's a very good player and right now we'd have been much better off with him than Barnes that's for sure... hopefully that changes.

There's been a few players like kudos to West Ham and Diaby that Newcastle didn't fancy in the end.

I'd like to think they have bigger fish to catch but the reality appears to be that they are now unable to spend much at all.

PIF now buying AC Milan and I suspect they've just thought **** it.

My negativity about him was purely about his personal life
